by Dmitry Sergeyevich Merezhkovsky (1865 - 1941)

Odinočestvo
Language: Russian (Русский) 
Pover' mne: - ljudi ne pojmut
   Tvoej duši do dna!..
Kak polon vlagoju sosud, -
   Ona toskoj polna.
 
Kogda ty s drugom plačeš', - znaj:
   Sumeeš', možet byt',
Liš' dve-tri kapli čerez kraj
   Toj čaši perelit'.
 
No večno dremlet v tišine
   Vdali ot vsech druzej, -
Čto tam, na dne, na samom dne
   Bol'noj duši tvoej.
 
Čužoe serdce - mir čužoj,
   I net k nemu puti!
V nego i ljubjaščej dušoj
   Ne možem my vojti.
 
I čto-to est', čto gluboko
   Gorit v tvoich glazach,
I ot menja - tak daleko,
   Kak zvëzdy v nebesach...
 
V svoej tjur'me, - v sebe samom,
   Ty, bednyj čelovek,
V ljubvi, i v družbe, i vo vsëm
   Odin, odin navek!
